Personal Statement
I am a left-handed attackman and a 4-year letterman. I love to challenge myself to become a better athlete and student, each day. Tell me I can't do something, and I will not only show you I can succeed, but I consider a personal quest to become the best in whatever scenario that I'm faced with. I would like to attend a university where I can fulfill my dream of becoming a collegiate athlete, while also studying to become a Registered Nurse (and possibly PA, NP or MD someday). Becoming a health professional is a dream, because I will continue to work with a team, sometimes under pressure, while helping that team's objective of healing another. I think that lacrosse and the health professionals ons are very interconnected; both require the discipline and the ability to control your emotions, under pressure, while working with a team towards a shared common goal. If you are looking for a team player, that will treat everyone with respect, and will uphold the values of the team (both on and off the field), I'd like to have an opportunity to converse with you. Finally, and I know that this is very important: I have led every team that I have played on, in scoring (both in goals and total points) since I was in 5th grade (with the exception of my first varsity year).
